baseline-shift
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
Thebaseline-shift attribute allows repositioning of the dominant-baseline relative to the dominant-baseline of the parent text content element. The shifted object might be a sub- or superscript.
Note:As a presentation attribute,baseline-shift also has a CSS property counterpart:baseline-shift. When both are specified, the CSS property takes priority.
Note:This property is going to be deprecated and authors are advised to usevertical-align instead.
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:
